Singing was something I always did. I really don't remember a time when I wasn't singing, even as a little child.

I started singing at age three - I opened my mouth some time, singing along to the radio, and my parents were like, 'Wow! You have a really great voice!'

I could always sing, from a really young age, but my voice was really weird. I used to make my mum turn up the radio every day in our house. She was well into music so I got that from her.

I was the youngest of three kids, and from the age of four, singing was my way of getting attention.

When I was 6, I opened my mouth and didn't stop singing. I had a voice and wanted to use it.

Everyone told me I could sing from about the age of ten. My mum was always telling me. But I was so shy, I didn't believe them. And the more that people told me, the more I went into the background and the less likely I was to sing.

It seems like I've always been singing, at least since I was 5.

I was a kid, and I remember my mother singing. She was also a radio soap opera actress, but my mother sang.

I don't remember ever not singing. My mother loved music, and she taught me songs, country music, spirituals. I would sing for people and pass the hat when I was 4.
